DAZN to launch and operate new FIFA+ streaming service that will include a continuous news service.
- New service aims to engage younger audiences.
Sports streamer DAZN has agreed a new strategic partnership with football’s governing body FIFA to launch and operate the FIFA+ service across the globe.
The new FIFA+ service will be the long-awaited digital home for global football—an accessible, user-centric platform featuring live matches, historic archives, original documentaries, and exclusive original programming.
The partnership between DAZN and FIFA builds on the deal they struck to bring every game of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 to viewers.
Following the tournament, DAZN will launch a continuous, exclusive news service, ensuring fans stay connected to all the latest football action and stories from the world of football. It will be known as “the home of football” on DAZN’s platform.
DAZN says the platform “will serve as a comprehensive football destination, offering fans access to over 150 men’s and women’s leagues, national teams and historic FIFA moments from over the years.”
